Sounds like a linking issue, make sure when you compile your script you are passing are passing all the right options. I have never heard of mkfifio, but that undefined referenece usually is caused by the linker I believe.

o yes I mistakenly say it as a compile error, it is a linker error indeed. Haha u got it right. cool!!

Well I do think I am pazsing the right parameters. So do u know how to fix linking problems? I am using the DEV C++ compiler. I heard someone saying add the library into the linker or sth....don't know much...so any idea?

I really could not find an answer here, but just clarification that the problem may not be how you are doing things, but a bug in your compiler/linker. You might also make sure you are using hte latest version of your compiler/linker, which might solve the problem if the resolution I stated above did not work.

I think ur first suggestion actually works!! haha
but not sure...have to gie more tests on it first
And for the google paragraph that u found, what does it mean by "the first change is needed"? what exactly is the "first change"?

Thanz!!

I don't know, I just copied and pasted that. I don't think the first change refers to anything relevant though, it had to do with some program that wasn't working, and I think the first change was to fix the mkfifo problem.

o..it's ok anywayz I'm still testing the program coz I think the lines that u told me to add r simply a function declaration right? I wonder if it really does what its supposed to do........

Yeah its just declaring it because your compiler doesnt have it defined. From what I read I think it will still function right though, you should test it out and see.
